BBC Radio 4 - Ruby Wax - Frazzled, Episode 1

Ruby Wax explains how we got to be so frazzled and what we can do about it.

Ruby’s take on mental health - to make us laugh at her, ourselves, make our lives manageable and share coping tools. From 2018.

Ruby Wax talks about mental health in her inimitable style.

She's focusing on how we are all frazzled, how we got to be that way and what we can do about it - using comedy, mindfulness and chat with the audience.

Ruby has the knowledge - a Master's degree in mindfulness-based Cognitive Behavioural Therapy. 

She also has the experience after years of struggles with mental health. And of course she has the comic gifts to say it in an articulate, funny and entertaining way.

In this show, she wants to make us laugh at her and at ourselves, make our lives feel more manageable, and share tools for how to cope.
